Barbara Lee responds to Nikki Haley: Racism ‘is in the DNA of this country
The Hill ^ | 01/19/2024 | CHEYANNE M. DANIELS

Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) blasted GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley for her recent remarks that America is not a racist country.

Speaking Friday to CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins, Lee refuted Haley’s comments that America has “little kinks” to fix.

“Racism, institutional racism, is in the DNA of this country,” Lee said. “When you look at what has taken place, look at our Native Americans, the genocide of Native Americans. When you look at what has taken place as it relates to African Americans, 250 years plus of enslaving African Americans, and then you look at the disparities now in our community in terms of health care, unemployment, the wealth gap, housing. You can’t tell me the systemic racism does not exist. It’s not just a little kink.”

Yo Babs! If Racism is in America’s “DNA”, what the **** are you still doing here? Your ass should have been gone long ago. Are you retarded or just stupid? Why are the minorities of the world sneaking into America? Same question? Retarded or Stupid?

Right.

The Democrats, the original slave holders, want to keep dysfunctional blacks on the plantation for the Dem’s own political aggrandizement.

The Left and the Dems care nothing about the blacks who need all the help they can to get out of their dysfunctional culture which includes self-loathing, entitlement, and anti-social attitudes and actions.

The Dems and the Left want nothing to do with that stuff and actually helping blacks. How I hate the Left.

Best solution for a black: come to Jesus. He’ll heal them and help them more than anything.

Babs is dreamin’ of barbeque every night once she starts receiving her “reparations” checks from her dumbass honky friends that believe Babs never had an opportunity to get anywhere in America because her skin tone was black and it held her back. Morons all.

Race card player par excellence.

I’ve been watching her for a long time.

She’s an ideologue.

Yes, racism certainly is in the DNA of much of this country. The hate by blacks for whites is far deadlier than ever before.
